HACKETTSTOWN — A sinkhole has formed in the area of a water main break, police said this morning.

This morning a water main break was discovered in the area of 110 Ferris Place, according to Sgt. Darren Tynan of the Hackettstown Police. It's the second water main break in as many days.

"During the water main break a sink hole formed," Tynan reported. The water line has been repaired and water has been restored to those who were without, he said.

"At this time there are no evacuations," Tynan added. "The Hackettstown Municipal Utility Authority’s geotechnical engineer will be arriving today to survey the scene. It’s undetermined if the hole was previously under the ground or if the water main break caused the sink hole."

Ferris Place will remain closed between Deerfield Drive and Carter Terrace until further notice.

Assisting at the scene was the Hackettstown Municipal Utilities Authority, Hackettstown Department of Public Works and the Hackettstown Office of Emergency Management.
